Chapter 96

In the office, Cai Qingyuan’s expression was serious, and besides him, there was Liu Wentao.

Liu Wentao looked at Ye Yao with a complicated and strange gaze.

Ye Yao also looked at the two of them, feeling somewhat speechless.

So, what’s the situation now?

Is the collaboration possible or not?

None of them spoke, and they had already been sitting in silence for over ten minutes.

“Ahem, Boss Cai, if you haven’t made up your mind yet…”

“No, I’ve already made up my mind!”

Cai Qingyuan interrupted Ye Yao, his voice sounding strangely odd.

Ye Yao straightened up, waiting for his answer.

“Let’s collaborate, as you mentioned before, to create our own brand!”

Cai Qingyuan’s voice was firm and full of conviction.

Ye Yao’s lips curved into a slight smile. It was settled.

“Ye Yao, Old Cai has already told me about your last conversation. How did you come up with this big plan? Can we really make it happen?”

Liu Wentao found it hard to connect the grand plan with the plain-looking girl before him.

“Of course, we can make it happen. Trust me.”

Ye Yao’s voice wasn’t loud, but there was a strange force in it that made people trust her.

Cai Qingyuan and Liu Wentao exchanged a glance, both filled with excitement and longing.

“I’ve already drafted the contract. Let’s sign it.”

Cai Qingyuan had prepared everything in the past few days.

Ye Yao nodded readily.

“Ye Yao, I still have a few questions I want to ask you.”

When Cai Qingyuan went to get the contract, Liu Wentao spoke up.

“I heard from Old Cai that he actually wanted to take you as his apprentice, but you refused. I know you have talent in this area, but to become a top designer, just being able to draw blueprints is far from enough.

Cutting, making, each step is crucial. Are you planning to learn these slowly later on? Wouldn’t having a mentor be a good thing for you?

Or are you considering it from a business perspective?”

By the end, it seemed like only this possibility remained.

But what surprised him was that Ye Yao actually smiled and asked, “How do you know I don’t know those things?”

Liu Wentao was completely stunned. She meant that she wasn’t just good at drawing blueprints?

At that moment, Cai Qingyuan returned with the contract and directly handed it to Ye Yao.

“Take a look and let us know if you have any questions.”

Ye Yao nodded, opened the contract, and read it from beginning to end, her expression extremely serious.

Cai Qingyuan and Liu Wentao exchanged a glance. They didn’t really believe that she could understand everything written on the contract.

A few minutes later, Ye Yao lifted her gaze.

“Overall, it looks fine, but there are two points.”

Both of them immediately turned to her, eager to listen.

Ye Yao continued, “I want to be the one to decide the brand name, and for this field, I won’t use my real name, but another name instead.”

“Why is that?”

The first part was understandable—since she was the designer of the brand, it made sense for her to name it. But what did she mean by changing her name?

Ye Yao patiently explained, “Considering my current image, if you were customers, would you want me to make clothes for you?”

This world has always been one where people are judged by their appearance, and right now, her appearance was her only weakness.

Uh…

Cai Qingyuan and the others understood her point, awkwardly shaking their heads.

Although they didn’t want to discourage her, if a customer stood in front of them right now, even if they praised her skills to the skies, they probably wouldn’t believe her.
